For product inquiries, your data will be passed on to the responsible sales partner, who will then answer your inquiry. If it is necessary to transfer the data abroad, we will contractually oblige the recipients to maintain the confidentiality of the data and to use it only for the specific purpose.

Automated decision making (Pprofiling) based on your personal data does not take place in connection with the use of our website.

Legal basis of data processing

Insofar as we obtain consent for the processing of your personal data, Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for data processing. Insofar as processing your personal data is needed to fulfil a contract or within the framework of a contract-like relationship with you, Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for data processing. Insofar as we process your personal data to fulfil a legal obligation, Art. 6 Para. 1 c) GDPR serves as the legal basis for data processing.

As the legal basis for data processing, Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR continues to apply if processing your personal data is needed to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms do not require the protection of personal data.

In the context of this data protection declaration, we always refer to the legal basis on which we base the processing of your personal data.

Data deletion and storage duration

We always delete or block your personal data if the purpose of storage ceases to apply. However, we may also store data if is subject to legal requirements, for example, with regard to legal storage and documentation obligations. In such a case we will delete or block your personal data once the corresponding specifications have ended.

You also have the right to ask us to correct or delete data related to you that is incorrect and to object to our continued use of your data.

You may also object at any time to our use of your data for marketing purposes, in particular to the electronic mailing of adverts or calls for marketing purposes. If you wish to exercise these rights, please send an email to: office@rosenbauer.com.
